Shipping Instructions
What to Send?
If at all possible, remove the media from the computer. If you require assistance, feel free to contact us and
we’ll gladly remove the storage device for you. Send us just the hard drive(s), tape(s), floppy, jaz, zip, optical, flashcard, micro-drive, etc.
How to Send Your Media?
- Wrap media in an anti-static bag or tinfoil to prevent Static Electricity
- Use a box that is at least twice the size of the media so that the media can be suspended in the middle of the box. We recommend a minimum of five centimetres of insulation all around
- Pack securely with foam, bubble wrap, or newspaper so the media will not move from the middle of the box. Avoid using packaging peanuts as contents will settle to the bottom of the box.
- If sending a computer, laptop or notebook, use great care to ensure proper cushioning and protection. We recommend at least fifteen centimetres for insulation. The heavier the unit, the more insulation required.
- Handle a hard disk drive as you would handle an egg. Handle failed hard disk drives with the same care as new drives. Use the original shipping materials, if you still have them. If not, they are relatively easy to replicate.

Quantum LTO5
Quantum’s LTO-5 Full Height (FH) and Half Height (HH) tape drives deliver tremendous capacity and performance at an affordable price. In addition, they use less power on average than LTO-4 drives, making a “greener” and more energy efficient solution.
 The drive uses the latest industry-standard interface—6 Gb/sec Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)—to allow for easy installation and integration into your data center. Quantum’s LTO-5 FH/HH tape drives also protect your investment by providing backward read and write compatibility with LTO-4 media and backward read compatibility with LTO-3 media.
And with Quantum’s LTO-5 drives, you can be assured of security with hardware-based AES 256-bit data encryption, allowing for the highest level of security without any loss of performance during the encryption process. In addition, LTO-5 is WORM capable when used with LTO WORM data cartridges. And the new partitioning functionality enables the tape to be formatted so it can be treated like a hard disk – perfect for video, imaging, CAD/CAM and other large file applications.
